I'm nearly positive this can be done, as I believe I have seen it before a few years ago (not here but somewhere on the web)
What I need is a circuit that would detect when headphones were plugged into a phono jack, then open a relay or transistor or w/e
Here's the project. I'm adding a FM transmitter to my car but it connects between the radio and antenna so the signal is near perfect. The problem is, there is a switch to turn it on and off. If it were to always be on, I wouldn't get radio.
I'm looking for a way to replace this switch with something that would detect that headphones have been plugged in and would then activate the power for me, but at the same time then kill the power once the headphones are removed.
thanks for the help guys, i'm really stumped on this one.
